Hicks: Vince Neil of Motley Crew rushed to hospital

Motley Crue frontman Vince Neil became ill Monday during a show in Australia and was rushed to the hospital.

His bandmates said Neil, 52, is dealing with kidney stones.

Kidney stones? That's not very rock.

Bassist Nikki Sixx and guitarist Mick Mars took to Twitter to apologize to fans. Motley Crue is touring Australia with fellow veteran rockers Kiss and Thin Lizzy. The group was playing a second gig at Sydney's Allphones Arena when Neil started experiencing pain.
